...ranked Harvard women’s squash team (5-0, 3-0 Ivy) placed second in the inaugural CSA 5-person Team Championships Saturday and Sunday in Williamstown, Mass. In the five team round-robin format, the Crimson tied with Dartmouth with the best two-day record at 3-1, but placed second since Dartmouth had dealt Harvard its only loss on Saturday afternoon.

These morphed into the Nooma--a 12-min., high-end short melding Bell's spoken narrative and a seemingly unrelated visual into a compelling homily. The format is unique in the world of Evangelicalism or, really, anywhere. If the father of a young child can watch Rain, a divine-love parable featuring Bell and his son during a storm, and not fight tears, he is Christopher Hitchens. The 18 Nooma DVDs have sold 1.2 million units...
